  1. Dogs get killed and bitten at parks.
  2. Dog poop leavings can harbor bacteria, worms, and parasites.
  3. Other people tell you how to handle your dog.

Wow...I guess my dogs and I have been lucky for the past 50 or so years.

Just a few comments: 1. Most of the dog owners here are responsible. Arguing about the percentage is just silly.
2. There are only three dog parks in TV. Clearly not enough for 100,000 people. The dogs at Brinson-Perry get along great and we've never had issues with illness or serious attacks.
3. My mail station has lots of dogs who visit. I've never noticed any odor. With all the dogs at Brinson-Perry, there is no odor there except in the immediate area of the trash cans. I think there are some over active imaginations at work with those who claim this terrible odor around the mail stations.
4. There are feral cats, foxes, coyotes, geese, ducks etc. roaming around TV. Guess what! They poop, too!

I happen to own a wonderful 24lb Blue Eyed Cat that purrs when a Dog barks and cannot quite understand what the fuss is all about when a dog barks at him.

My advice get a Cat great companion and far less complaints...an ex Golden Retriever Owner and by the way my next door neighbor has two adorable dogs that bark ...but there happy barks.

Be a responsible Dog owner respect the rights of others.

And while they're at it, go after those slobs who toss their cigaret butts out on the street and aim their cigar remnants at the drain on the street. At least dog poop is biodegradable.

I am fairly certain that cigars are made of dog poop.

Maybe the dog poop could be made more socially acceptable with a little effort.

I wouldn't expose my pet nor myself to any form of a dog park.
Bacteria parasites and who know what else had leached into the ground
Would you let your pet play in a sewer bed ?
